id say ekblad will be in with weber or subban out

 

[Naslund]

I agree. Subban is not a TC favorite. He definitely deserved to be there though.

 

[TopCheese]

for this tournament i agree, TC loves its lefty righty pairings though and subban was the odd man out

Marchand - Crosby - Bergeron
Benn - McDavid - Seguin
Duchene - Tavares - Stamkos
Couture - Toews - MacKinnon
O'Reilly


Keith - Doughty
Rielly - Letang
Brodie - Subban
Pietrangelo

Price
Holtby
Murray

 

[Aaaaaaaaaaaaa]

Curious about Bergeron. No question he is a good player and a great fit with Crosby, but I just have a feeling he may not be on the next team. I feel the same way about Perry and even Getzlaf. There may be younger players who do what they do only better by 2018.

Marchand - Crosby - Bergeron

I'm not sure if stamps is selected again unless he rebounds and rediscovers his shot. He has been underwhelming at best in this tournament.

This is pretty much my team. I think Ekblad will be on the though. Maybe over Letang

this is a joke about bergeron , right? the team in question is 2 years away not like he will be a shadow of himself

[Legend123]

who is this Rielly that deserves a spot over players like Burns, Ekblad, Letang?? Im really curious.

 

[Bixby Snyder]

So Rielly is gonna make the line up for team Canada?

 

[Soundwave]

Bergeron Crosby Marchand

Think they will go 4 righties.

-Somehow see J-Bo getting in again over more deserving candidates being a left handed shot

[Chet Manley]

Stamkos, Giroux, O'Reilly, and Couture haven't shown much this tourney. Certainly not enough to be automatic additions to the next one. Would like to see a few more natural wing players next time, don't agree that most centres can move to wing and be as effective as actual wingers.(especially around the oppositions net)

 

[nhlfan9191]

Marchand - Crosby - Bergeron
Benn - McDavid - Seguin
Duchene - Tavares - Stamkos

Price

Murray

Not a horrible list.

 

[Eternal Leaf]

Murray isn't Canadian.

Yes he is.

 

[nhlfan9191]

Yes he is.

That's my bad. I was literally editing as you posted. Lol

If Bergeron doesn't get selected next tourny, then Toews/Getzlaf 100% won't be chosen for some mysterious reason either.

 

[LeafingTheWay]

MacKinnon - Crosby - Bergeron
Benn - McDavid - Seguin
Giroux - Tavares - Stamkos
Hall - Toews - Duchene
Couture

Keith - Doughty
Brodie - Subban
Vlasic - Letang
Ekblad

 

[chunkylover53]

Depends how some players age, Getzlaf/Perry could stay strong like Jumbo or start poor and never catch up. People putting Marchand but he could not have a great season or go back to around 50-55 points. Predicting young players is also pretty hard, my guess is that Ekblad doesn't make it...too much competition on the right side.

 

[High five Tom]

It's 16 months away. I'm pretty sure the team won't change much from now. Add maybe McDavid. You can probably already pencil in the Marchand - Crosby - Bergeron line.

 

[High five Tom]

Marchand - Crosby - Bergeron
Benn - McDavid - Seguin
MacKinnon - Tavares - Stamkos
Marchand - Toews - Duchene
Hall/Couture

Keith - Doughty
Brodie - Subban
Vlasic - Letang
Ekblad

Marchand double shifting? Lol
